    Episode 10: Raising children and the challenges of modern-day parenting with Michael Herd

    Michael Herd is a Developmental Psychologist who has spent 40-years learning how to best support parents who struggle to enjoy their children. The key, he has found, is to not just give expert parenting advice, but to use a self-regulatory process where parents are supported to build their capacity to problems solve their own parenting challenges. The topic of this podcast is Raising Children – Practical Solutions to the challenges of modern-day parenting. During this 40-year experience Michael has worked with children and families as a teacher, guidance officer and psychologist (and he’s still going). As a guidance officer, he spent 18 of those years working in a clinical program called the Management of Young Children Program. This is an intensive behaviour support program for parents of children 2½ to 7 years of age, who were being very challenging for their parents.   For the last 12 years he has worked in a private child clinic while also working as a Contract Trainer with Triple P International (TPI).  TPI is a private company who has the rights from the University of Queensland to deliver the training to practitioners in all the parenting interventions developed by the university.  Michael is now working full time for TPI and is the Deputy Head of Training for Australia and New Zealand.  He has trained practitioners in Triple P Programs across Australia, Canada, Hong Kong, Singapore, the UK and the USA.   Michael has a PhD in psychology from the University of Queensland and has an intensifying passion for understanding the challenges of parenting, and how to best support parents to enjoy their children.  Michael also happens to be Patrick's brother. During the Podcast patrick will be delving into Michael’s background, asking what attracted him to this fascinating field and posing a few ‘big society questions’. Michael has some practical tips to share on positive parenting behaviours and loads of stories to share.
